Hi is bio,chem,maths and sociology a good combination if i want to do a chemical engineering degree, also opinions and ideas on the degree and a levels would be helpful thanks
Tbh I would replace either sociology with physics if you want to do chem engineering. Doing maths, bio, chem and physics will keep your options open for pretty much every other science degree as well.

then you would be fine to just do three sciences. only some universities require physics as well as maths and chem, so you're good to go. if there are any specific universities that you're already interested in, just check their entry requirements, because you don't want to set your heart on somewhere then realise they require physics.

Oh i was goig to do history at a level but i dnt knw
If you're going to be studying mainly science subjects, it might be nice for you to have an arts subject in there to add breadth. Just do what feels right.

Yes i enjoyed history at gcse aswell but isnt it really difficult

I'm pretty sure that even at Cambridge FM is only listed as 'desirable'. But it would be useful to take.
Universities that i have researched dont have physics as a main requirement
In the first year everyone will be brought up to speed so in the later years it won't matter. However, it will make you a competetive applicant if you do have it, even just to AS. At Oxford, the only reason it's not required is because not all schools offer it. If your school does offer it, the admissions tutors will ask you why you haven't taken it. I'd recommend teaching yourself at least FP1 - that is really easy, especially with the help of Youtube.

As long as you have decent a-levels in maths and chemistry, and one other A-level, that will be enough to get you into pretty much any university (except Oxford, Cambridge, possibly London Imperial). The reality is that when most universities look at your application, even 'prestigious' ones, they will make you offer, say AAA including maths and chemistry, and as long as you meet that offer you will get a place, they don't really care what your other 2 choices are. I would say that Chemical engineering is a very good degree to do, the UK as a shortage of engineers, and along with law and medical students, chemical engineers are one of the highest earning graduates.

thank you very much for that information i was thinking newcastle university would be good as they have high employability rates and theres an year in industry with it
